12 Encouraged by this, I tried the migration this morning. I followed the enews
13 item that Mick quoted - I even printed it to keep myself straight.
14
15 Before the start:
16 $ eselect profile show
17 Current /etc/portage/make.profile symlink:
18 default/linux/amd64/17.0/desktop/plasma
19
20 I went through the migration, step by step, but after step 7, "unsymlink-lib
21 --finish", I found 110 files still in /lib and /usr/lib (list attached), of
22 the >3000 before the migration attempt, and /usr/local/lib still a symlink.
23 This can't be right, can it?
